As I told you yesterday when I shared my Bazing! Pencil Cup, my family is big Big Bang Theory fans. We’re excited that the new season starts tomorrow, Thursday September 26th. I couldn’t just stop at one Big Bang Theory Dr. Sheldon Cooper project project, now could I?
My family travels a lot and not just when the military moves us. We take many trips to visit family and to sight see. My parentstravel a lot. They drive across country to come see the grandchildren me where ever we’re stationed. Taking road trips is just a part of our life.
If you’ve never seen the episode when Sheldon plans the gang’s road trip, it’s a must-see. One of my favorite Big Bang quotes is, “Remember people, we are only as strong as our weakest bladder.” Too true. Too true.
I just had to make my dad, who is also a Big Bang Theory fan, a travel log notebook. (I know he’s chuckling about now).
I started with a clearance notepad from the craft store, a pen, an old map, card stock scraps, double stick tape and the paper cutter.
The map paper is too thin to use for a notepad cover so I scanned the map and printed it out on a piece of white card stock to give it more stability. It also allowed me to choose a part of the map that has meaning to my dad.
I trimmed the card stock map down to the size of the pad. Then I added a scrap piece of blue card stock to the top of the map and used double stick tape to adhere it to the top and back of the pad.
Next I typed my selected quote into Word and printed it out on another scrap of card stock. I added a couple of coordinating card stock scraps to the back of the quote.
And voila! Dr. Sheldon Cooper’s travel log. Act surprised, Dad, when I give it to you on your next visit.
I’m a mom of 3, a veteran and military spouse. I’ve moved into 20+ homes all around the world. My passion is helping busy people make the space and time for what’s really important to them.
Make a DIY craft to give as “just because” small gift ideas. These decorated gum packages are fun to give as gifts to coworkers, teachers and friends. They’re also perfect kids’ crafts for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day.
Both of my daughters have danced hula. My oldest is going to a hula competition this summer. She dances both traditional hula and modern hula. It’s a big deal and costs big bucks! The halau (hula school or group) is doing lots and lots of fund raisers. I thought it would be nice…
I love giving small gifts to neighbors, coworkers and friends. I like sharing a smile and a small gift can do that during a busy holiday season. In the past, I’d never quite figured out the best way to wrap these small gifts. A couple of weeks ago, I while I created an Easy Homemade…
